two more areas
Beard and eyebrow transplants
A hair transplant is not only for the scalp. Same grafts from the back of the head, same FUE method — only the area changes.
Beard transplant
The FUE method, no incisions used
Grafts are taken from the donor area at the back of the head and moved through micro-punctures of about 1 mm — no scars are left. The doctor discusses the shape with you before the operation, taking your facial features into account. Transplanted hair grows for life: the beard can be trimmed and styled as usual.
The surgeon draws the eyebrow shape at the initial consultation: references are studied together and the design takes your facial features into account. The hairs are implanted at the natural angle of growth, so the eyebrows look natural. It also helps where years of plucking stopped growth.
Care for every patient, modern equipment, comfortable rooms

I traveled to City Medical Centre, where they helped me overcome hair loss through a transplant to the balding areas of my scalp. I am grateful to the doctors for performing the procedure painlessly.

I am sharing my experience, because before the operation I went through a pile of reviews myself and was looking for real stories.
I had a beard transplant six months ago. Honestly, in the first days after the procedure I felt a little jittery: my face looked unfamiliar, there was slight swelling and small scabs. In the first couple of months the hair partly fell out, as the doctor had warned.
But now the result truly makes me very happy) From about the 4th month active, even growth began. The transplanted hair took very well, the beard now looks as natural as possible, no bald patches are left. The beard became much thicker and denser, with the shape I had thought about for a long time.
All in all, I recommend the clinic, the doctor was polite and explained everything 👍
The result is definitely worth it!

Frequent questions
We tell what people ask before booking
People often say hair implants, but no artificial hair is used. In a hair transplant the doctor moves your own follicles (grafts) from the donor area to thinning or bald areas using FUE or DHI.
Yes. The clinic works with patients from other cities and countries, and an online consultation is available first.
FUE: $2,200 (≈ R37,000). DHI: $2,500 (≈ R42,000). Combined: $2,700 (≈ R45,500). A free consultation and graft count gives you the final, contract-fixed price with no hidden extras.
Surgery is done in one day, and patients go home the same day it's finished.
It helps with stable pattern hair loss and a receding hairline when there are enough donor grafts. Some types of alopecia need treatment first; the doctor checks this at the consultation.
No pain during the procedure, thanks to local anaesthesia.
With FUE, grafts are taken by tweezer with no incisions. With DHI, grafts are implanted directly using a Choi pen, without pre-made channels. The combined method mixes FUE harvesting with DHI implantation.
Graft count is calculated by the doctor at no cost, based on an assessment of your donor zone.
First comes 0–10 days of healing, then shedding at 2–4 weeks (a normal stage). Growth starts at 3–4 months, density is clear by 6–9 months, and the final outcome shows at 12–18 months.
A contract-backed, lifetime guarantee of hair growth comes with every procedure.

Thinking about a hair transplant in Pretoria?
A patient in Pretoria is offered the same two methods as anyone else: FUE and DHI, no incisions, no sutures, local anaesthesia, one day from start to finish. Grafts take in 98-100 % of cases, and a price from $2,200 (≈ R37,000) enters the contract after a free graft count.
A resident of Pretoria needs only a phone for the first step. The online consultation is free: the doctor looks at photos of the thinning area and counts the grafts. Contact is open 24/7, so the reply comes the same day.
Afterwards it goes like this: 0-10 days of healing, 2-4 weeks to the normal shedding of the transplanted hairs, 3-4 months to first growth, 6-9 to density and 12-18 to the final result. Check-ups at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, photos with a personal coordinator, growth guaranteed for life.
